Cleveland Nursing Home Neglect

Nursing home neglect and abuse attorneys in Cleveland

Deciding to place an elderly family member in a nursing home is difficult enough without having to worry whether he or she might suffer abuse or neglect at the hands of a trusted caretaker. You can do your best to pick the right long-term care (LTC) facility for your loved one, including asking for recommendations, visiting potential nursing homes and LTC facilities, and researching them online. But what happens when, despite your careful choices, you or your elderly loved one still suffers from nursing home abuse or neglect?

At Nager, Romaine & Schneiberg Co., L.P.A. (NRS), our nursing home abuse and neglect attorneys in Cleveland believe every person is entitled to safe and comfortable long-term care.

Testimonials

"I want to thank you for the excellent service you recently provided for our family!"

– Wendy, Aurora, OH

"I have been with the NR&S Law firm for nine years. They specialize in excellence, professionalism, caring and fighting to get you what you deserve. As far as I am concerned, they are “super lawyers”."

– Brenda Z.

"I would like to thank you and your staff (NRS) for their excellent work resolving my work related injury. You took a difficult case that I thought was hopeless, handled it in the most professional way and saw that I received the maximum benefits. Dealing with the BWC to get medical and monetary benefits while injured is a nightmare. It is so important to have a capable lawyer whom you trust will put your best interest first as your life and future wellbeing is at stake. You did everything a person could hope for. My family and I sincerely thank you."

– Ken, Middleburg Hts. Ohio

“I have been quite impressed with the compassion and understanding, as well as efficiency of communication, with every member of NRS Law Firm. This is a long process/journey, and I have found that Melissa Johnson, Attorney Nager's assistant, has helped me with the reassurance and informative updates she has given to me. I thank each of you very much for all of your assistance through this difficult passage. It is rather discouraging and disappointing to have to "fight" for the care that one should be given. Being injured, on the job, trying to assist another creates much ongoing physical pain, anxiety and stress that one has absolutely no control over. Your advocacy means more than words can say.”– Deb

For the last three years NR&S has been there for me! And before me they helped my mother win her claim! This has been a long road, and I know I have not been easy to deal with! But through thick and thin they always have had my back! I have my final pre-trial hearing today. And I just wanted to thank you all there at NR&S for all you have done for my family and me! Highly recommend!
